Christmas Ornament Cupcakes on Cake Central

I thought I'd give these a try. Cupcakes covered with MMF, airbrushed for color and decorated with RI.

Those are awesome!! I'm glad you gave a description too, I have an airbrush and didn't know if I could airbrush fondant! Good job!!

Thanks guys! They are a bit time consuming. I followed the instructions here on CC. One thing I found is that the "ball" is soft since it is filled with a cake ball mixture, so you have to be careful when handling that part. Also, they were top heavy, so you have to take care when moving them. Next time, I think I will use the mini sports ball pan to make the tops and then go from there. Can't hurt to try!!

These are absolutely beautiful!! You did a great job! It inspires me for next year. When you say they are top heavy, what pan did you use to make the tops?

I followed the instructions here on CC in the articles section. I used the mini sports ball pan as a mold for the MMF and then filled with a cake ball mixture. Next time I will just bake some mini sports ball and put them on top of the cupcake and then cover with MMF.
